First, some concepts related to a HARQ indication method, apparatus and system provided by the embodiments of the present invention are explained.
HARQ technique: the method is an error control technology, can improve the transmission quality of signals and ensures the transmission reliability of a wireless channel. In the process of data transmission, a receiving end receives data sent by a sending end and temporarily stores the data and requests the sending end to retransmit the data under the condition that the data is failed to decode, and then the receiving end combines the retransmitted data with the data failed to decode before and decodes the data.
BWP: for a system adopting a 5th Generation (5G) mobile communication technology in the future (hereinafter, referred to as a 5G system for short), or an ultra-4G system, or a post-LTE system, for example, in a 5G New Radio (NR) protocol, a total bandwidth of a cell in which a UE operates is 100M (megabits), and a bandwidth in which the UE operates may be relatively small, such as 20M, so that for a base station of a cell, the base station needs to allocate 20M from 100M of bandwidth as an operating bandwidth of the UE, which may be referred to as BWP. Illustratively, for a 100M system bandwidth, the 100M system bandwidth may be divided into a 20M BWP, a 30M BWP, and a 50M BWP according to numerical configuration (including a series of parameters such as subcarrier spacing, symbol length, and cyclic prefix length of the symbol).

The HARQ indication method provided in the embodiment of the present invention may be used in a scenario in which, after receiving downlink data sent by a base station, a UE sends feedback information to the base station (hereinafter, referred to as scenario one), or may be used in a scenario in which, after sending uplink data to the base station, the UE receives feedback information sent by the base station (hereinafter, referred to as scenario two). The HARQ indication method provided by the embodiment of the present invention is described in detail below by taking the scenario one and the scenario two as examples.
Scene one
In scenario one, in conjunction with the wireless communication system shown in fig. 1, as shown in fig. 4, an embodiment of the present invention provides a HARQ indication method, where the method may include S101-S106:
s101, the base station generates HARQ indication information, wherein the HARQ indication information comprises the identification of at least two TBs and transmission time indication information corresponding to each TB of the at least two TBs.
The at least two TBs are TBs sent to the UE by the base station using different bandwidth parts BWP, the transmission indication information is used for indicating a time point when the UE sends first feedback information, and the first feedback information is feedback information sent to the base station after the UE receives downlink data sent by the base station.
Illustratively, taking the HARQ indication information including the identities of 5 TBs and the transmission time indication information corresponding to each of the 5 TBs as an example, table 1 below is an example of the content of the HARQ indication information.
TABLE 1
Identification of TB Transmission time indication information
TB1 TIME1
TB2 TIME2
TB3 TIME3
TB4 TIME4
TB5 TIME5
In table 1, TIME1-TMIE5 represents 5 pieces of transmission TIME indication information corresponding to TB1-TB 5.
In this embodiment of the present invention, the transmission time indication information may include a time point when the UE sends the first feedback information to the base station, or an index of the time point when the UE sends the first feedback information to the base station, or a time difference between the time point when the UE sends the first feedback information to the base station and a time point when the UE receives at least two TBs sent by the base station. If the transmission time indication information includes a time point when the UE sends the first feedback information to the base station, the base station can directly know at which time point the UE sends the first feedback information to the base station; if the transmission time indication information includes an index of a time point when the UE sends the first feedback information to the base station, the UE may know at which time point the UE sends the first feedback information to the base station according to the index (the index may indicate the time point when the UE sends the first feedback information to the base station); if the transmission time indication information includes a time difference between a time point when the UE transmits the first feedback information to the base station and a time point when the UE receives at least two TBs transmitted by the base station, for example, the time difference is 4 milliseconds (ms), after the UE receives the at least two TBs transmitted by the base station, the UE transmits the first feedback information to the base station after 4 ms.
It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, the transmission time indication information may further include any other information that can indicate the time point of the first feedback time, which may be determined according to actual usage requirements, and the embodiment of the present invention is not limited.
Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the HARQ indication information generated by the base station may further include frequency domain resource indication information corresponding to each of the at least two TBs, where the frequency domain resource indication information is used to indicate a frequency domain resource used by the UE to send the first feedback information.
In this embodiment of the present invention, the frequency domain resource indication information may include a frequency domain resource used by the UE to send the first feedback information to the base station, or an index of the frequency domain resource used by the UE to send the first feedback information to the base station. If the frequency domain resource indication information comprises the frequency domain resource adopted by the UE for sending the first feedback information to the base station, the base station can directly acquire the frequency domain resource adopted by the UE for sending the first feedback information to the base station; if the transmission time indication information includes an index of a frequency domain resource used by the UE to send the first feedback information to the base station, the UE may know, according to the index (which may indicate the frequency domain resource used by the UE to send the first feedback information to the base station), the frequency domain resource used by the UE to send the first feedback information to the base station.
It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, the frequency domain resource indication information may further include any other frequency domain resource that can indicate the UE to send the first feedback time to the base station, which may be specifically determined according to actual usage requirements, and the embodiment of the present invention is not limited thereto.
It can be understood that, in the embodiment of the present invention, since the at least two TBs are sent to the UE by the base station using different BWPs, when the UE sends the feedback information for the at least two TBs (i.e. the first feedback information), it is necessary to send the feedback information of each of the at least two TBs at different time points, or send the feedback information of each of the at least two TBs by using different frequency domain resources, for example, the transmission time indication information includes a time point when the UE sends the first feedback information to the base station, where the time point includes a time point corresponding to the time point when the UE sends the feedback information of each of the at least two TBs, and similarly, the frequency domain resource indication information includes a frequency domain resource used by the UE to send the first feedback information to the base station, and the frequency domain resource includes a frequency domain resource corresponding to the feedback information of each of the at least two TBs sent by the UE.
S102, the base station sends HARQ indication information to the UE.
In the embodiment of the invention, the base station can send the HARQ indication information to the UE by any one of the following three methods A1-A3:
a1, the base station sends the HARQ indication information carried in the downlink scheduling information to the UE.
In the embodiment of the present invention, when the base station sends the downlink scheduling information to the UE through the DCI signaling in the downlink control channel (PDCCH), the HARQ indication information may be carried in the downlink scheduling information and sent to the UE, so that when the UE receives the downlink scheduling information, the UE may obtain the HARQ indication information.
A2, the base station carries the HARQ indication information in the high layer signaling and sends the HARQ indication information to the UE.
In the embodiment of the present invention, when the base station sends a high-level signaling (for example, a Radio Resource Control (RRC) signaling) to the UE, the base station may carry HARQ indication information in the RRC signaling and send the RRC signaling to the UE, so that when the UE receives the RRC signaling, the UE may obtain the HARQ indication information.
A3, the base station broadcasts HARQ indication information.
In the embodiment of the invention, the base station can broadcast the HARQ indication information in a broadcasting mode, and the UE can receive the broadcast information of the base station, so that the UE can acquire the HARQ indication information.
In summary, the base station may employ multiple methods to send HARQ indication information to the UE to indicate the UE to receive the first feedback information.
S103, the UE receives the HARQ indication information sent by the base station.
In the embodiment of the invention, the UE can acquire the HARQ indication information by receiving the HARQ indication information sent by the base station. Specifically, in the above S102, the base station may transmit the HARQ indication information to the UE by using any one of the three methods a1-A3, and then the UE may correspondingly receive the HARQ indication information transmitted by the base station by using any one of the following three methods B1-B3:
b1, the UE receives the downlink scheduling information carrying the HARQ indication information sent by the base station.
B2, the UE receives the high layer signaling carrying the HARQ indication information sent by the base station.
B3, the UE receives broadcast information which is broadcast by the base station and carries HARQ indication information.
In summary, in the embodiment of the present invention, the UE may obtain the HARQ indication information from the downlink scheduling information carrying the HARQ indication information, or from the higher layer signaling carrying the HARQ indication information, or from the broadcast information carrying the HARQ indication information.
For other descriptions of B1-B3, reference may be made to the above description of a1-A3 in S102, and further description is omitted here.
Optionally, in the embodiment of the present invention, the HARQ indication information obtained by the UE does not need to be configured by the base station, the HARQ indication information obtained by the UE is predefined HARQ indication information, and the predefined HARQ indication information is defined in a communication protocol between the base station and the UE, so that after the base station receives at least two TBs, the UE may send the first feedback information to the base station according to the predefined HARQ indication information.
And S104, the base station sends at least two TBs to the UE, wherein the at least two TBs are TBs transmitted on different BWPs.
In the embodiment of the present invention, when the base station sends downlink data to the UE, the base station may send at least two TBs to the UE on one HARQ process by using at least two BWPs, that is to say, the method may be understood as follows: the at least two TBs are transmitted by the base station to the UE using different BWPs.
S105, the UE receives at least two TBs sent by the base station.
S106, the UE sends the first feedback information to the base station under the indication of the HARQ indication information sent by the base station.
It should be noted that, in this embodiment of the present invention, the first feedback information is specifically feedback information corresponding to at least two TBs, and since the system bandwidth may be divided into multiple BWPs according to different numerical configurations (numerology), and subcarrier intervals, symbol lengths, and the like of different BWPs may not be the same, the base station sends the at least two TBs to the UE using different BWPs, and after the UE receives the at least two TBs, when the UE replies to the base station with the feedback information of the at least two TBs (hereinafter, referred to as first feedback information), feedback time corresponding to the feedback information of each TB may also be different.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the system bandwidth is divided into different BWPs according to different numerical configurations (numerology), so that different TBs are transmitted using different BWPs, for example, the system bandwidth is divided into 3 BWPs, and table 2 below is an example of the corresponding relationship among the numerical configurations (numerology), BWPs, and TBs.
TABLE 2
Name of numerical configuration (numerology) Name of BWP Name of TB
Numerical configuration (numerology)1 BWP1 TB1
Numerical configuration (numerology)2 BWP2 TB2
Numerical configuration (numerology)3 BWP3 TB3
Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, when the HARQ indication information includes transmission time indication information, the step S106 may specifically be implemented by the step S106 a:
s106, 106a, the UE sends first feedback information to the base station at the time point indicated by the transmission time indication information corresponding to the identifier of each TB according to the identifier of each TB in the at least two TBs received by the UE.
Illustratively, taking the example that the base station transmits two TBs (the identities of the two TBs are respectively denoted as TB1 and TB2, the TB1 is transmitted using BWP1, and the TB2 is transmitted using BWP 2) to the UE, the UE may transmit first feedback information to the base station at a time point indicated by the base station according to the transmission time indication information in the HARQ indication information, and specifically, assuming that time points corresponding to TB1 and TB2 in the transmission time indication information are T1 and T2, the UE may transmit feedback information for the TB1 to the base station at a time point T1 corresponding to TB1, transmit feedback information for the TB2 to the base station at a time point T2 corresponding to TB2,
similarly, in this embodiment of the present invention, when the HARQ indication information includes frequency domain resource indication information, the step S106 may specifically be implemented by the step S106 b:
s106, 106b, the UE sends the first feedback information to the base station by adopting the frequency domain resource indicated by the frequency domain resource indication information corresponding to the identifier of each TB according to the identifier of each TB in the at least two TBs received by the UE.
For example, also taking the case that the base station transmits two TBs (i.e., TB1 and TB2 described above) to the UE, the UE may also transmit the first feedback information to the base station by using the frequency domain resource indicated by the base station according to the frequency domain resource indication information in the HARQ indication information, and specifically, assuming that the frequency domain resources corresponding to TB1 and TB2 in the frequency domain resource indication information are R1 and R2, the UE may transmit the feedback information for TB1 to the base station by using R1 corresponding to TB1, and transmit the feedback information for TB2 to the base station by using R2 corresponding to TB 2.
Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the first feedback information may include an identifier of a HARQ process and transmission results of at least two TBs, where the transmission results of the at least two TBs include a success or a failure of transmission of each of the at least two TBs.
Generally, a base station and a UE may transmit data on multiple HARQ processes, where first feedback information sent by the UE to the base station includes an identifier of the HARQ process, and thus after receiving the first feedback information, the base station may learn, according to the identifier of the HARQ process, a situation that the data is transmitted on the HARQ process indicated by the identifier of the HARQ process among the multiple HARQ processes between the base station and the UE.
Taking an example of transmitting two TBs (e.g., TB1 and TB2) on one harq process, after receiving the first feedback information, the base station may learn whether the UE successfully receives the TB1 according to a transmission result of TB1 in the transmission result, if the base station determines that the UE successfully receives the TB1 according to the transmission result of TB1, the base station may send a new TB to the UE, if the base station determines that the UE fails to receive the TB1 according to the transmission result of TB1, the base station resends the TB1 to the UE, and if the UE successfully receives and decodes the TB1 according to a transmission result of TB1 in the transmission result. Likewise, the base station may determine whether to transmit a new TB to the UE or retransmit TB2 to the UE according to the transmission result of TB 2.
Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, data may be transmitted between the base station and the UE in multiple HARQ processes, where the number of HARQ processes may be specified by a protocol, may also be configured for the UE through a high-level signaling by the base station, may also be configured for the UE through system broadcast, and specifically, a method for determining the number of HARQ processes may be selected according to an actual situation, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present invention.
Optionally, with reference to fig. 4, as shown in fig. 5, in the embodiment of the present invention, before the step S101, the HARQ indicating method provided in the embodiment of the present invention may further include steps S107 to S108:
s107, the UE sends the capability indication information of the UE to the base station, and the capability indication information of the UE is used for indicating that the UE supports the transmission of TB on at least two BWPs.
S108, the base station receives the UE capability indication information sent by the UE.
In this embodiment of the present invention, the capability of the UE may support the UE to transmit data (transmit data or receive data) using multiple BWPs, the UE may send capability indication information of the UE to the base station to indicate that the UE may transmit data using multiple BWPs, that is, to indicate that the UE may receive different TBs sent by the base station using different BWPs, or the UE may send different TBs using different BWPs, such that the base station receives the capability indication information of the UE sent by the UE, the base station sends the HARQ indication information to the UE, and then sends different TBs to the UE using different BWPs (that is, the base station may send at least two TBs to the UE using at least two BWPs), after receiving the at least two TBs, the UE may send first feedback information to the base station according to the HARQ indication information, that is, the base station and the UE may send the S101 to S106 in.
Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, before the step S101, the base station may further generate HARQ configuration information, and send the HARQ configuration information to the UE, where the HARQ configuration information includes an identifier of at least one BWP and an identifier of a HARQ entity, and the HARQ configuration information is used to indicate that the HARQ entity controls and manages the at least one BWP.
In this embodiment of the present invention, the base station may configure one HARQ entity for the BWPs managed by the base station, and the base station may also configure one HARQ entity for each BWP managed by the base station, and send HARQ configuration information including an identifier of at least one BWP and an identifier of the HARQ entity to the UE, so that the base station and the UE may transmit data using at least one BWP on one HARQ process of one HARQ entity.
It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, if the HARQ configuration information includes at least two BWP identities and an HARQ entity identity, that is, the base station and the UE transmit data using multiple BWPs, the base station may send HARQ indication information to the UE by using the methods in S101 to S106 and S107 to S108, and the UE may send first feedback information to the base station according to the HARQ indication information.
In the HARQ indication method provided by the embodiment of the present invention, the base station may generate HARQ indication information, and the base station may transmit the HARQ indication information to the UE, and after the UE receives the HARQ indication information, the UE may transmit first feedback information for at least two TBs (at least two TBs that the base station transmits to the UE) to the base station according to the HARQ indication information, where the at least two TBs are TBs transmitted using different BWPs, and the transmission time indication information is used for indicating a time point when the UE transmits the first feedback information. Compared with the prior art, in the embodiment of the present invention, since the base station may generate the HARQ indication information, and the HARQ indication information is configured to the UE, when the UE receives at least two TBs, and the at least two TBs are TBs transmitted using different BWPs, the UE may smoothly transmit the first feedback information to the base station according to the HARQ indication information.
In the embodiment of the present invention, referring to table 2, since at least two TBs are TBs transmitted using different BWPs, it may be considered that there is a corresponding relationship between the TB and the BWP, that is, different TBs correspond to different BWPs, and since BWPs are divided according to different numerical configurations (numerology), it may be considered that there is a corresponding relationship between BWPs and numerical configurations (numerology), that is, different BWPs correspond to different numerical configurations (numerology), and thus, it may be considered that there is a corresponding relationship between the TB and the numerical configurations (numerology), that is, different TBs correspond to different numerical configurations (numerology).
